Capitalizing on the surge in demand for natural pesticides, Parry had expanded its market space with a range of new formulations and ‘Total Crop Protection‘ solutions. While the awareness of its proprietary and patented ‘Vigo’ range of Biostimulants is increasing in overseas markets, sales of our Azadirachtin based formulation is continuously growing in key markets. To meet the increasing demand our company, is developing thousands of acres of captive neem plantations and improving manufacturing technologies continuously.
Parry has a plan in place to isolate, manufacture and market unique microbial cultures targeting pests which are becoming resistant to new chemistry molecules. Parry is continuing to innovate, both with Azadirachtin and other Organic products for industries we serve.
Manufacturing
An extensive work from 1992 through 1998 on developing the patented technology for extraction of Azadirachtin in its best natural form, from neem seed kernel, resulted in Parry’s NEEMAZAL® Technical (Purest Azadirachtin technical of highest concentration in the world) manufacturing facility located in Tamil Nadu, India, the largest in the world with total process controls, to ensure every aspect of quality.
Best quality neem seed of high Azadirachtin content procured through dedicated vendors in India, is processed, decorticated and the resultant kernel (the raw material in our manufacturing process) undergoes a unique and Patented extraction process in the state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. Thus, highest purity Azadirachtin of about 40% along with other limonoids are extracted from the neem seed kernels without crushing it. The manufacturing facility, employs Distributed Process Control (DCS) technology, leading to excellent process control and ensure quality at every step of the process. The unique patented extraction process coupled with highest process standards results in producing world’s best quality Azadirachtin, with longer shelf life & better bio-efficacy.
The manufacturing facility undertakes latest technology upgradation at each step of the process on a periodic basis to conserve energy and resources. It also established Process Safety Management System & Effluent Treatment Facilities.
